Hello @PyroDevil, my understanding is that Proton's user_settings.py
gets called from the proton
python script, and the Steam client isn't involved in making any decision to use it or not. I've transferred this issue report to the Proton issue tracker for a Proton dev to ponder this behavior.
If the above is not true, a Proton dev can let me know and we can transfer this back to the steam-for-linux issue tracker.
Your system information

SteamOS:
Steam: Dec 5 2022, at 23:38:29
Steam API: v020
Steam package version: 1670284449
Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
I wanted to configure Proton via the
user_settings.py
, which seems to work when the game is started with Steam from the Desktop Mode. However, those settings seem to be ignored when the game is started from the Steam Decks 'Gaming Mode'.Steps for reproducing this issue:
winhttp.dll
to work./home/deck/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Proton 7.0/user_settings.py
:Expected:
The log file is created as well, meaning the modding tool was loaded and the game is started the same way in the 'Gaming Mode' as it does in the 'Desktop Mode'
Result:
No log file is created, meaning the modding tool was not loaded, which means the [code]user_settings.py[/code] was not loaded.
Possible workarounds and their downsides:
proton
python script (modifies code, that should not be modified)Other infos
